Description Jonathan Stickel 2005-09-07 15:22:31 UTC
Ebuild for fig2ps.  This is an independent project on sourceforge for converting
xfig figures to ps/eps/pdf, processing all latex correctly in the conversion. 
There may be a filename conflict ('fig2ps') with other packages (e.g. texmacs).
 I'm not sure what is the prefered way to resolve this conflict.

Reproducible: Always

Sure thing; I was lazy and copied it from another ebuild in bugs.
Comment 5 Ciaran McCreesh 2005-09-11 15:23:36 UTC
Please fix the following and reopen:

* http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm/docs/mw-faq/license.txt
* http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm/docs/mw-faq/spacing.txt (DEPEND)
* No docs to install?

License and spacing is fixed.  Docs are being installed with the "make
install".  If this is not correct, then please instruct me.  I think the
Makefile for the package is a little unusual.

Version bump.  Added ~amd64 keyword.
Comment 9 Marek Szuba archtester gentoo-dev 2016-04-25 08:17:13 UTC
fig2ps can still be found on SourceForge but it seems the project as a whole hasn't seen any activity since April 2013 and the last VCS commit dates back to February 2010. Moreover, it seems media-gfx/transfig can do the same and more - and that is assuming all the export options currently offered by xfig itself are not enough.
Comment 10 Amy Liffey gentoo-dev 2016-04-25 08:30:33 UTC
This bug has made no progress for years. Can we please confirm whether this package is still wanted? 

If it isn't, or if there is no response within 30 days, we will close this bug.

Thanks

Amy

I'll take that as a no.
